I am slow on the up-take here, but how do I use the "HAL-based ACL
support" to replace pam_console?  For example, on a system with serial
ports used for accessing other consoles, I have a 10-serial.perms like:

########################################################################
<serial>=/dev/ttyS[0-9]* /dev/ttyUSB[0-9]*

<console>  0660  <serial>  0660  root.uucp
########################################################################

How do I replace that?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
